Lime Margarita with Bitters
I only had one blood orange to celebrate National Margarita Day so needed to make a lime one for Kevin --really liked the addition of the bitters!
- 1 1/2 ounces (45ml) Resposada or Anejo Tequila
- 1 1/2 ounces (45ml) fresh Lime Juice
- 1 ounce (30ml) Simple Syrup
- 3 dashes Orange Bitters
- kosher salt or sea salt for the rim
- Rub the rim of an old fashioned glass (or whatever glass you prefer) with an edge of a lime slice. Swirl the rim through a small pile of kosher or sea salt to salt the rim. Add one or two large cubes into the glass.
- Combine tequila, lime juice, simple syrup, and bitters in an ice filled shaker.
- Shake vigorously for 15 seconds, then strain into the salted glass. Serve or drink immediately and with leisure.
